Question

I'm five days late, pregnancy test shows light line, now spotting?

Share

My last MP was November 21, so I should have ovulated on December 7th. We tried to conceive on the 6th, 7th, 9th and 10th. My period was due on December 21st. I took an EPT test that claimed up to six days early detection of pregnancy on the 20th, the 21 st and the 24 th. all negative. Then I took a dollar store test on the 25th and hours later I noticed a faint pink line. I quit looking at that test after about three minutes, so I reread it later. just to make sure I took another EPT brand test yesterday, the 26th at 3pm and it had a very faint pink line. Today I took one first thing in the morning and it's still a very faint line. Today I have light spotting, just a little mucousy and red, then a brown tinge. Could I have been pregnant and am miscarrying? Now I'm six days late and wondering how to confirm this pregnancy. I have four kids, three of which had strong pink lines on pregnancy tests within a day of missing my period.

Thank you. I think I'm experiencing a chemical pregnancy. I think I was pregnant and am losing the baby. I'm spotting more heavily today with some light cramping and I took another EPT test and the line is even more faint, leading me to believe my HCG levels are dropping instead of increasing. :(. I didn't think I would be so sad.
